Is there a possibility of getting the new Samsung Captivate lockscreen on the EVO? It's a neat little lockscreen if you havent seen it. It is a little puzzle piece that you place in the correct spot to unlock. Looks cool. can we get this working?
Holy crap you're from Vancouver? I use to live there. 05-09. I miss it...Not sure about the lockscreen though. What does it look like?

Nothing helpful in the thread, but it's been discussed before.
I would like this also. I have an Evo and love it, but I had an Evo for a couple of weeks before I told AT&T to shove their limited data plan. Anyway, I really like the puzzle piece lockscreen and I'd like to get it on my Evo.
I also like the lockscreen it actually changes depending on if you have a notification or not. like for a message its a certain puzzle piece and I believe you can just slide something if you dont have any notifications. I dont remember exactly how it worked a friend of mine has one and as soon as i saw the lockscreen I thought it was awesome.
Me want!

I don't know if thus is the right place to post this. So mods have at it and move if needed. Would it be possible to have an app that'll animate the screen during use of the autorotate feature? Obviously I have no clue on how to code

What are you trying to animate?
Are you thinking of something like the animation in an iPhone when you rotate?

Think "rotating an iPhone", he wants that fancy flip the entire screen effect present on Apple products. I love it so much, Steve may be mean - but Apple has perfect graphic and visual designers.
+1 it's extremely well polished. Granted it's not the instantaneous rotation that Android provides but it sure looks nice!

Shouldn't this be in development?
i happened to find in the market an alternate spare parts app that has a selection for rotate animations in it, just an fyi

Do you mean an alternate version of Spare Parts or an application like Spare Parts? If it's an application like Spare Parts, mind giving us the name?
[EDIT] Oh wait I've found it. The market version of Spare Parts. I don't seem to see any difference when enabling the fancy rotation though.
I am blind as well

I actually thought there would be an animation a long time ago. Anyone remember the G1 zooming cube animation?
There was an animation back on 1.5 however within the source code it was commented out in 1.6 and then deleted all together on 2.1 . I read that it isn't possible to adapt to 2.1 because surface flinger lies on top of open gl. Could any developers get this running again? I'm sure it would be a lot quicker on the nexus one than the magic.
Yeah, that's definitely one of those many little things that make the Nexus look less polished than the iPhone (And don't get me wrong, I hate the iPhone )
+1 to this!
Perhaps something simple like a fading display. Or Have the background rotate first and have the icons and widgets rotate at a slower rate, so it looks like the foreground is trying to "catch up" to the background
I would take anything animated, i hate the fact that when i rotate my screen its just so still!
But i think its better for faster screen rotation.
this much talk and no developers chiming in.. don't think this is going anywhere..
YEAH THIS IS ABOUT AS LIKELY AS GETTING A FRIKKIN FLIP CLOCK THAT FRIKKIN FLIPS... AAHHHH THE OL' JACHERO DAYS! i SEE PHONES HALF AS POWERFUL BY HTC W/ THE CLOCK FRIKKIN FLIPPIN AWAY!
BACK ON TOPIC I TOO WOULD LOVE THIS IN ANY FASHION AS LONG AS THE DELAY (AND IT WILL SLOW THE TRANSITION DOWN) IS MINIMAL! HOWEVER I USE SENSE SO ROTATION IS A WHOLE NOTHER GAME THERE!
This is my first thread, but I think it's a pretty badass request.
I am a DIEHARD Myn Warm TwoPointTwo user, and I won't stray...except when I went to MIUI to see what this "whole new" UI was about. I didn't care for it anywhere near as much as Myn's, however the lockscreen is the best one I've seen since OWNING a smart phone.
Other lockscreens work on our EVO....rotory, vanilla, and through an app the iphone. MIUI is already on our EVO, can someone just find the code and bring it to us (JsChiSurf )
I am sure I am not alone on this request...lol, if you ever tried MIUI and came back to a sense ROM you know the lockscreen from MIUI is brilliant and should be available to us all.
YES....NO??
I would like to see that as well. I believe I've seen similar features on some lock screens but non as well done as MIUI.
I would like to see that as well , i like how you can play music and on the lockscreen you can see the equalizer

Yeah, I forgot about the equalizer part...that was HOT! I also like the charging effects...while charging it has some awesome animation going on.
Please, anyone....lmao!!!
id like to see this for CM6 as well
Come on people!!!! lol, that just about 250 views so far, which leads me to believe there are folks interested!!!!! If it sound good to you, and you'd like to see this happen, SAY SO.
The more people that would like to see this Lockscreen on the Sense ROMS (and CM6) the better!!!!!
POST "ME TOO"
This way the GENIUS MODDERS out there can see the demand for this, and then spend the CRAZY ASS TIME it takes to make it happen for us
It might have some special framework in the MIUI rom, but i could be wrong
Just a me too bump
Swyped from a galaxy far far away...
I tried MIUI for about 5 minutes, and the only thing that impressed me was the lockscreen. So, consider this a "me too" vote...

It'll happen!! Just keep signing up here with "ME TOO'S" and we'll eventually catch the eye of a GOD-LIKE modder such as JsChiSurf (wink, wink, nudge, nudge...lol, kidding - I am sure you have a ton on your plate. It's just you're the best of the best and we all know it )
....and he/they will either tell us, it will never work.....or, he'll look into it for us
Keep signing up here guys, keep this to the top!!!
For those who don't know about this LOCKSCREEN....nandroid backup, and flash MIUI - do some charging and look at the lock screen. Then listen to music and look at the lockscreen. Nandroid restore...and tell me you dont want that lockscreen on your ROM!!
Yep me as well.

I've pretty much got everything the way I like it. I was just wondering if anyone knows of a good dragon theme. I use mostly red, black, and white on my phone. So I would like something that doesn't have too many crazy colors. The main thing that I haven't touched is the lockscreen so if anyone knows where I can find just that, that works too.
Running Senseless revolution 2.0 with ADWLauncherEX. With REDemptive 2.2.8.
*It's IncREDible*
There are a couple of people who have done dragon themes (Inc and EVO).

Click the link, you may be able to get the. To do a different color.
I would honestly build one man. Its a great learning experience and there are a ton of resources/helpful people in the android development section.

I really would love to try and work on my own theme. Unfortunately I only have my Wife's laptop to work with right now. And once April comes around, I will be a full time student. Really the only thing i am looking for is to change the tabs on the lock screen for unlock and vibrate/sound.
My girlfriend just got the sidekick 4g and while playing around with it, I fell in love with the damn UI it uses. I know its pretty much a modded TW interface. Just curious if anyone else has looked at it and played with it and ended up liking it. I would love to see some type of port, tho I know very unlikely. And no "If you like TW then get the sidekick!!!!" comments, they are just pointless. The sidekick just doesn't have all the hardware I want. Tho I do miss the sidekick keyboard. Best damn physical keyboard I have ever used. RIP Danger. lol
Ninja Edit: Crap, I just noticed I posted in the wrong sub forum, If a MOD sees this, could you please relocate it.
Hey there, i have a nexus S 4G, im aware what im trying is a tiny SDK port, however when it comes down to it, ICS is ugly. Just so very ugly. I understand why it would appeal to minimalist perhaps but i mean when it comes down to it the icons have regressed into something that looks vanilla. Who makes a menu dark greyish blue and then has a contacts application with BABY blue and pure white in the background. When i used to click on peoples icons i would get intuitive popup menus leading to a list of contact methods I.E. Phone, SMS, Facebook, Gmail... now i get this light blue pop up with a picture and some low quality icons that look as though they have been made by baboons. ICS in the theme department is no doubt a regression from Gingerbread, then when i go to phone i get a black background..Where is the consistency?....Where is... everything looks bulky, like they made it friendly for the use of 70 year old people with cataracts... on a good note the hardware acceleration is nice, i like how smoothly all the application run..and how the new browsers functions when scroling..actually scrolling in everything is nice now. Again lack of any consistency when in the phone app on the keypad..diagonal 2 tone lines with thin blue text..i look at it and nearly vomit because my eyes cant focus...definet regression. If this is the future of android..i dont want it...Sorry guys, just wanted to speak my mind.
Edit: After using it for about a day, it's grown on me a bit, but it still needs some polishing in the theme department. I mean it's like they could make up there minds of what color trend to stick with. White and baby blue or blue gray with black. Please google, bring back some consistency. Everything else is nice. Digging the new SMS , I imagine it will look good black. can't wait for cyanogen to have a crack at it.

QFT. you're running a buggy SDK port of somehting that hasn't been released yet. and guess what?
that's what CUSTOM LAUNCHERS are for. you don't like something in android, you can CHANGE IT.
I think vanilla ICA is beautiful, but if you don't, well, go buy an HTC phone. or get ADW. i really don't care. stop hatin'. you're the minority.
Wow, you guys, its HIS opinion. If you don't agree with him, its not the end of the world. Honestly, I agree, it isn't very good looking at all. Just my 2 cents...
Agreed. It is his/her opinion and they have the right to it. And I for one agree with it. It is ugly but then I have not seen many stock android themes that weren't. As for being in the minority there I think your wrong. Look at how many custom themes there are for android. Only a small percentage stay on a stock theme.
Either way everyone has the right to what they think and should not and will not be flamed for it.
Nuff said
man, I don't know what you are on....I think the ICS theme is the nicest one so far!! Honestly, none of the stock vanilla android themes are pretty or aesthetically pleasing!! Froyo was just flat-out ass-ugly, imho!! At least they started trying to make it more intuitive and they are adding features that people are asking for....like the data monitor that can be broken down app-by-app....I love that!!! I now have unlimited data with sprint, but when I had at&t I can't count how many times I had screaming matches with customer service about my data usage!!
Like people said above....this is why apps like adw & launcher plus are around....use 'em!! They have hundreds of themes each

I'm not a fan of most of the changes either. DevBeat has an interview with Matias Duarte, where he discusses his reasoning, but I don't agree with some of it. I don't care that the phone and media apps are dark because they pop, and the Google apps are light to better match the web apps. IMO, they're all phone apps. They're installed on my phone (many of them preinstalled), they should be consistent.

Out of boredom (and a most-likely misguided sense that I know better than Google) I started redesigning everything and posting it to my blog. I'd appreciate feedback.

Well my initial response was quite negative also, but as you say, as time goes by you get used to it. Overall I believe it is quite an improvement over 2.x, and the dark themes and dark live wallpapers (eg bubbles) will look awesome on amoled screens.
